"Praise for Donna Andrews: ""As always, Andrews knows her stuff. The plot is sufficiently intricate, and the story line involved enough for just about any reader of the genre. Andrews creates marvelous characters and puts them in situations that vary from almost slap-stick to Wodehouse-esque (is that a word?) contrivances to incredibly subtle bon-mots."" --Reviewing the Evidence on Dashing Through the Snowbirds ""Agatha Award-winner Andrews's fast-moving, high-spirited 30th Meg Langslow mystery finds witty Meg preparing to host her large extended family at her home in Caerphilly, Va., for the Christmas holidays...This Christmas romp, complete with a litter of adorable puppies, will certainly please fans and newcomers alike.
